I guess some more details would be helpful:
I am using a raw printer: here is the samba.conf lines that are important:
cups options = raw
printing = cups
local master = Yes
printcap name = cups
security = share
printer = Cannon560
load printers = yes
[Cannon560]
public = yes
writable = no
printable = yes
path = /var/spool/samba
use client driver = Yes
I am using the Canon i560 driver on the Windows boxes
